Civil Inattention

Saw a man spewing tar from his mouth
As fast as he was shaking he was gone
The kind of language that lingers behind
The kind of thing that sticks with you

I am no longer scared
I am terrified all the time

He says "I just want to work my job and come home.
Please leave me alone."
"I just want to work my job and come home.
Don't you understand?"
While we were watching mountains changing color
Cars melt into the sea
As it all went dark

And I am no longer scared
I am terrified all the time

Until all you see are signs of things you wish were true

For every double take
Hallucinations
